Re: [gremlintime] What Motor Revisited

["John Ferguson III" <liberty_valence@xxxx>]

Around here, HO 4.0's go for ~$1200, WITHOUT the trans. Carb'd Wagoneer 
360's go for ~$3-400. Actually, I grabbed a filthy but running 360 from a 
rotted 1978 J-10, along with the TH-400 & Quadra-Trac hooked to it last week 
for $400. That should fetch the better part of $8-900 at the summer 
swaps.....

Also, I don't like the AW-4--give me a TH-400 or TorqueFlite any day.

You got a Gremmer under Tarps.
Now.....what motor......hmmm.....

a Full House 360 - Built - or -
Turbo I-6 Power.......

The areas that have a 'High Concentration'
of Yuppie Jeeps will have alot of newer salvage.

In Rhode Island - wholesale 1997 Fuel Injected
24k mile 4.0 engine was $575.00 .

Body parts - transmissions & diffs sell. Motors don't.

I've one here in NY - a '98 with 22k on the clock.
$800.00 - bring cash & watch the numbers get dusty .


. Let's take a look ........
Say, that windshield sticker says 1999 .
Been here long ?

You could get a Fulie 4.0 + the AW4 four speed
autOmatic trans attatched - same internals as in the
Toyota Supra trannie & be outta where on the Pallatized
for at worst $1,500.00 . Go home - plug in & Grin.

Then , well.......I did just purchase a KKK Turbo with
8 hrs. on it's Brand New Bod - Integral Water Cooled
Exhaust Turbine Housing included for under $201.00 .
This is the Similar K-26 unit as seen on .....Porsche.....
Turbo cars. Oops..

Only makes a safe 14.lbs. Boost .
And a light weight I-6 pushing 10 lbs. will
spin up a SnotBall 300HP - .
[.....]

.......................... NO2.........?

But.......from the Land of Orange Peels..
and Sagging Front Springs........
some RaisinBurns are never satisfied......
